Encounter at the Drowning Stones
Encounter at the Drowning Stones, a Pathfinder Society scenario written by Tim Hitchcock for tier 7-11, was released in October 2009.
“Rumored to be the most desecrated site in the Mwangi Expanse, the natives have long feared its malevolent presence. Rumors of suicide, infanticide, murder, and chaos have always been mentioned in the same breath with any description of this mysterious rock formation. Adril Hestram sends your band of Pathfinders there after the location is discovered by a Chelaxian demonologist working for the Aspis Consortium. The Society fears the Aspis may have discovered the source of the Drowning Stones' power and it's up to you to insure that they don't get their hands on it.
